what is the answer to this math problem ?24=-6(m+1)+18?

Question

24 = -6(m+1)+18

Answer 1

First, substract 18 from both sides:

24 = -6(m+1) + 18
24 - 18 = -6(m+1) + 18 - 18
6 = -6(m+1)

Then divide each side by -6:

6 = -6(m+1)
6/-6 = -6(m+1)/-6
-1 = m+1

Then subtract one from each side:

-1 = m+1
-1 - 1 = m + 1 - 1
-2 = m

There's your answer:

m = -2

Answer 2

lets start~
24=-6(m+1)+18
24=-6m-6+18
24=-6m+12
24-12=-6m
12=-6m
-6m=12
-m=12/6
m=-2

Answer 3

24=-6(m+1)+18
24=-6m-6+18
24=-6m+12
24-12=-6m
12=-6m
-6m=12
-m=12/6
m=-2
